Abstract (en)

[origin: US4685444A] The lower section (9a) of a flame tube (9), in which a burner (11) generates a flame (F), protrudes into the water contents (W), which contains an absorbent, of a water tank (1). The hot combustion gases are drawn into the water and set in turbulent motion by means of a rotor (12), whereby a long residence time and large contact areas result. The purified gases leave the water tank (1) through an outlet (18). The heat generated within the water contents (W) is removed through a tube coil (6) through which a liquid flows. The equipment is uncomplicated and inexpensive, and ensures excellent efficiency. The escaping waste gases no longer contain any detectable pollutant residues.
